Pretty obvious to me. Pushing for play offs and bonus of same cost if promoted vs possible relegation and same cost for inferior product. Never understood why you would sell season tickets before end of season as bulk of fans still paying for matches in current season, either by direct debit or funding away trips at expensive places like Leeds/Leicester.

Shrewsbury v Wrexham was 2pm Sunday on S4C.

Michael Caine would be to old to play center-back.

Michael Caine has recently announced his retirement.

And also have Plymouth ticket bought the moment they went on sale.

Think it penalises any away regulars who were on holiday for Rotherham game. I suppose you can’t please everyone but those who went to lots of A games last year could miss out.

Well done.

Drummer's arms and Rock Box next door.

I can vouch for this place.

Would be mightily surprised if he changes any of the defenders after 2 clean sheets.

Anyone know how many we took last season. 5:30 KO. February 5th. 

Can't see Gallagher not starting with Brittain playing. Hedges played lots in friendlies so think he will start. Like the fact that he is prepared to have a shot, and can get it reasonably on target. Dolan looked fit as a fiddle on Saturday and should play for 45-60 mins chasing down I would think. Would think Dack & Vale will come on if necessary.

I would think that his last payday will have been 30th June, or whatever day Rovers pay wages on in June. Can't see the PFA paying any wages as would be too expensive (imagine Ronaldo having no job at the end of his contract).

Why does it have to be glossy? An old fashioned paper version would be far cheaper to produce and could sell for £1-£2  (as with 4000 holes). Would probably shift more too. Most of what is in the expensive booklets can be found online and is trivial. Easier to stuff in a pocket and won't take up as much room if collecting.

Rovers asked him, but he wouldn't come.

Likely to go missing for 6 weeks around Feb/Mar so would fit the bill.

Bet the prawn sandwich brigade aren't happy

No prawn sandwiches for sale in W12 that day. Just loads of polite, happy kids + one or two other cheap ticket buyers who were a bit verbally aggressive towards them.

 Missing the point, which is that Watford have acted swiftly

To be fair, they have acted swiftly 11 times since Mowbray was appointed.

If we get the same results in the remaining games as we did earlier in the season, many of which were in our great unbeaten run after Fulham, then we will get 23 more points. Obviously relies on someone finding the net but hopefully Diaz will be back soon.

Has anyone got an update on when the yellow card reset kicks-in?

I think Trav n Darra currently on 9. This for me is as important as getting BBD back. 

10 cards by end of game 37 gets 2 game ban.

Does anybody know if this game is on the Sky red button?

Grammer is important, EG. I helped my Uncle Jack, off a horse.

Or                                       I helped my Uncle, jack off a horse.  

No comma needed in either of these statements, although the capitalisation or not of the word 'jack' is important. 

The first implies that you are helping your Uncle Jack dismount from a horse, whilst the second implies that you have a dodgy uncle. Note that uncle would not be capitalised either in the second case. You would also be complicit in committing an offence. Is this your Uncle Jack? https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/news/west-yorkshire-news/man-deviant-sexual-history-locked-12554539

We also had Dack, Ayala & Gallagher missing. Plus TK had to go off. pretty even on the injury front I would say.

5 of the 7 sides we've played are in the bottom half; 3 of which are in the bottom 5.

Hardly 'better sides'.

However, had they beaten us then Luton & Swansea would have been level (+ Boro) so I guess it is just as well they didn't. And if we had drawn with WBA we would have been level with them. At the moment we are doing OK. At least we have eaten teams at the bottom which is not something we always do.

Interesting that he said that the Sam Morsy sending off was a straight red all day long. I didn't see Morsy protest too much so it must have been worse close up than it looked.

I'm curious about the "Mogloire is pony" comments. Is he? He was good and gave our defence extra leverage. Something had to change, and something tells me that this unglamorous substitution salvaged a point for us.

Well done Rovers. A respectable point and I can enjoy the rest of the evening. 🍻

There was one point in 2nd half where he ran to cover very well in the centre.
